I love the occasional Chipotle burrito, but if for some crazy reason you find your nearby location a little stingy on the beans and meat, or if you like a little variety in your burrito, the folks at Thought Catalog have a great guide to hacking the Chipotle assembly line so you get both types of beans, more meat, and free burritos.

To be completely honest, I don't think I've ever had a Chipotle burrito that I thought needed to be a bigger, but the post explains that there are a couple of hacks to remember if you want one. First, the post explains that you can have both beans if you want: You're usually asked if you want black or pinto beans, but the truth is you can have both for no extra charge. The same applies to the meat: you can ask for half-chicken and half-steak from the get go and not be charged for extra meat—you'll get a half-scoop of each, but it's delicious added variety. The post also suggests asking for the fajita onions and peppers in your burrito too—they usually available at no extra charge, so don't leave them on the table.

The guide takes the tips a little farther than I might and suggests you wait until the first scoop of beans is applied before asking if you can have the other type as well, making sure you get two full scoops. He also explains that asking for two meats also inevitably ends up with you getting more meat than you should, just because there's no way to accurately measure a half-scoop, so you always come out ahead. Personally, I'll just be happy to switch up my standard burrito mix, give in to my analysis paralysis, and go home with barbacoa and carnitas just because I can never decide.

Also worth noting in the original article is that using the Chipotle app for iOS devices, the unofficial Android app, or the webapp means you can skip the line and go right to the register by the time you get to the store.
